Book Description
A CLASSIC GUIDE TO JOURNAL WRITING, Tristine Rainer's The New Diary takes readers beyond the rigid calendar diary they may have kept as a child or travelogues of family vacations. A blueprint for efficient, productive and creative diary writing, it is a tool for tapping the full power of your inner resources. With more than 100,000 copies in print, The New Diary is as much for the novice journal-keeper as it is for those who have kept diaries their whole lives. It does not tell you the "right" way to keep a diary; rather, it offers numerous possibilities for using the diary to achieve your own purposes, such as:
- Clarifying your goals
- Focusing inner energies
- Freeing inhibitions and releasing your imagination
- Using a workbook to explore dream
- Writing about your life: past, present, and future

I've kept a journal/diary off and on for over 20 years. The biggest problem I have is that I have been stuck in the little locked book/calendar frame of mind with my journal. Tristine Rainer gives her readers some really great tools to break out of that thought pattern. Before reading this I didn't fully realize that I was in this pattern of self-editing/self-consciousness with pretty much all of my journal writing. It really held me back. Instead of not having enough to say, not thinking that my life is interesting enough to track on a regular basis, I now feel freed to explore my inner life. The combination of encouragement and practical tools to do this make it an invaluable book for the journaler.
My only complaint is that the language is dated and I would like to see it updated. It took me out of the moment book too often.

After keeping a journal for the better part of the last decade, it had started to lose its lustre for me and at times even felt chorish. I felt I had nothing to write about and was guilty for no longer writing.
And then I read The New Diary. It reminded me of all the wonderful things about journalling that I'd forgotten and opened me to new techniques and tools. Most importantly, it stopped me laying a guilt trip in myself for not writing and helped me recapture everything I'd previously loved about my diary.
I would definitely recommend this book for anyone who's thinking of starting a journal or wants some inspiration to refresh their current one.
